AA International in Cleveland, OH 1950

Dr Bob is considered the Co-Founder of AA.

Some call this the Gettysburg Address of AA.

He was very weak from the cancer that would take him a little over three months later, November 16,1950.

"...Love and Service. We all know what love is and we all know what service is."

NOTE: Confirmed from GSO Archives, this talk took place starting at 2 pm on 7/30/1950, the last day of the three day event titled on the official event program:

"First International Conference
of
ALCOHOLICS ANONYMOUS
on the occasion of its
Fifteenth Anniversary"

Interestingly it was NOT called a Convention.
